REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The first half of the 2022 financial year was a period of review, stabilization, and renewal. Significant progress was made across the two core project activities within the company with the introduction of high-calibre partners: Woodside and Ovida. These partners provide not only short-term funding support to activities, they will enhance the company's potential long term commercial success.

Silicon based Thermal Energy Storage technology / SiBox Demonstration Module project

The company's SiBox silicon-based thermal energy storage technology has continued to advance with the ongoing testing of storage media and completion of design activities. In October, agreements were executed with Woodside Energy Technologies that will see them fund $2 million in future costs to construct the 1MWh SiBox demonstration module. Procurement activities have started and we will be commencing fabrication and construction activities throughout the second half of this financial year. The SiBox demonstration module is expected to be commissioned in early 2023 ready for extended performance testing and evaluation thereafter before Woodside make the decision whether to participate further in ownership of the company's technology.

The SiBox technology offers a scalable and flexible solution to the firming of renewable energy, and the delivery of decarbonized heat. The potential significance of its future commercial use was underscored when the company was announced as a successful recipient of a $2.2 million grant under the Commonwealth Government's Modern Manufacturing Initiative. These funds will be used to further progress the SiBox towards commercialization.

Aurora Energy Project (AEP) - Port Augusta

SiliconAurora Pty Ltd, a 100% owned subsidiary of the company, was successful in its application to vary the development approvals at AEP which now paves the way for future investment in the project. The variation approved from the South Australian Minister for Planning and Local Government also allows for the addition of a 140MW/280MWh battery energy storage system (BESS), thermal energy storage and 33kV transmission line grid connection. This is in addition to the pre-existing approvals for 150MW Concentrated Solar Power (CSP), 70MW Solar Photo-Voltaic (PV) and 275kV connection to the network.

In December the company executed an MoU with Ovida Infrastructure Pty Ltd (Ovida) to explore partnering on the development of the AEP. Ovida is a 100% owned subsidiary of Jemena Ltd (Jemena), one of Australia's largest owners and operators of energy infrastructure with over $11 billion of assets under management and approximately 2,500 employees. We are now working closely with the team at Ovida on the progression of the AEP and are looking to execute binding agreements during the remainder of this financial year.
